No-Bake Chickpea Shakshuka
Serves: 4

Ingredients
Method
Step 1
Add olive oil to a small deep fry pan with a fitted lid or a cast-iron shallow casserole over a medium heat.Step 2
Sauté onions and capsicum for about 15 minutes.Step 3
Add garlic and spices and sauté for a minute or so until fragrant.Step 4
Add tinned tomatoes and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce to a low heat. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. In the last 5 minutes, mix in the chickpeas and spinach.Step 5
Make four wells in the sauce and crack in the eggs. Cover with the lid and let cook for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.Step 6
Serve shakshuka in the pan it’s cooked in. It’s great enjoyed as is, but a crusty piece of bread is always welcomed to mop up the sauce. To brighten, I like a handful of chopped flat-leaf parsley overtop.
Tips
It’s a goodie to meal prep – simply whip up a batch of the sauce (sans eggs) and refrigerate for a few days until ready to eat. To cook, spoon a serving of sauce into a ramekin, make a well for an egg, crack it in and (this time) oven bake until set.
